    ARMENIA NEEDS MORE FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN JEWELRY


    For the first 10 months of 2006, the volume of
    production in jewelry and gold in Armenia made up 74.4
    billion Armenian drams and the volume of sale made up
    75 billion Armenian drams. These indicators diminished
    by 19.7% and 17.6% as compared with the reporting
    period in 2005. Also, 300 less people are employed in
    the sector, Gagik Lazarian, head of jewelry
    department at the ministry of trade and economic
    development, told a press conference today. In his
    words, the decline is conditioned, first of all, with
    the crises in the international jewelry market which
    continues for 2 years. It is also connected with
    devaluations of the American dollar.

    Lazarian believes jewelry company need better
    management and higher technologies. `New foreign
    companies must be attracted to the field,' he said.
